Warmth is a long sedimentary pause,
sip it slowly, relish it.
My eyes have taught me the art of forgetting,
My heart has almost perfected it.
Too much of an interlude
and the spaces around you
start spewing nostalgic visions,
sabbatical turns into the ruins,
the moment one begins to dream
I dreamt of a normality which I always fear:
A morning in July with no rain,
where my hands spread as far as the sky, but they never find you.
We should have woken up when It was still winter
our sleeping hearts still booming with summer’s dream.
cold distant stars, falling white snow
hearts in unison, brewing warmth
eyes sipping this pause sip by sip
Time was a circle of memories
when you were here.
Always.
Beautiful and poignant.
“My eyes have taught me the art of forgetting,
My heart has almost perfected it.” 👏💌
